Thank you! In the first draft… he DID take the deal! I ultimately decided to go for heartfelt, not heartbreaking. I had Chris take on the backstory of having fought for his family, and won. This journey was too much to cram into Topher’s Tale, so I boiled it down to a single line of dialogue.
Oh, do I love a story that makes me reflect on my own life. This is what I think you do best... you challenge your readers to dig deep, before they even knowing they’ve left the station.
This was such a great read, and the blend of eerie, mysterious, and heartwarming was on point. Once I figured out the situation, I flew through it because I was so afraid Topher would agree!

Holy crap, Cole. This was really, really good. Kept me riveted all the way through.
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Definitely took a few drafts to nail down the pacing
I love the idea of this.
Thank you!
Time junctions in our own life intersecting. Cool one Cole 😎
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed!
Excellent writing, Cole! Really enjoyed this one. Chris
Means the world to me; I’m so glad this spoke to you!

Thank you so much! This felt like such a real story to me. A lot of reflecting while I edited. I think we would all do well to remember what we have…
